As pretty much everybody saw coming, things aren’t going so well with the Mixed Martial Arts Athletes Association—the latest attempt at forming a sort of fighters union—and former Bellator founder and CEO Bjorn Rebney’s presence in the group is already threatening to ruin it.

The Muhammad Ali Expansion act, otherwise known as H.R. 5365, is a bill that was proposed by Oklahoma congressman and former professional MMA fighter Markwayne Mullin.

Jon Jones failed a doping test before UFC 200 this summer because he took an off-brand Cialis pill, he said on the Joe Rogan Experience yesterday. He told Rogan that he has a huge cock, and that he takes male enhancement because it “it puts the twist at the end of a punch” and “it’s a good time” while pantomiming a…

Conor McGregor was the champion of two UFC weight classes for all of two weeks until the UFC stripped him of the featherweight title last weekend. He hasn’t fought as a featherweight in almost a year, and the UFC vacated his title in part to spice up UFC 206's new main event and make it a title fight. McGregor hasn’t…

MMA journalists received a surprise press release yesterday, touting an “industry defining” announcement and conference call to take place Wednesday.

Poor Daniel Cormier. A few months after Jon Jones was forced out of his UFC 200 rematch against Cormier for a positive drug test, Cormier will now have to miss his light heavyweight title defense against Anthony “Rumble” Johnson at UFC 206 on Dec. 10 with an injury. MMAFighting first reported the news and ESPN later…

Eddie Alvarez was completely dominated by Conor McGregor during their lightweight championship bout on Saturday. On his Instagram account today, Alvarez offered a succinct and depressing explanation for the loss:

Over the weekend, Conor McGregor became the first UFC fighter to ever simultaneously hold belts in two different weight classes. He is, without a doubt, a legend-in-the-making, a star we should appreciate while he’s still around. But he’s also hotheaded and petulant, and I worry that both the UFC and other fighters…

Here’s some video from last night’s UFC 205 event at MSG. You can tell by the music that it’s just as Conor McGregor entered the arena, and it’s a lovely brawl. Reader Jason shot it, and we’re happy to actually have UFC video we can use for once.

Four months after a positive drug test got Jon Jones pulled from his headlining bout with Daniel Cormier in UFC 200, Jones has officially been handed a one-year suspension in an arbitration proceeding before the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency. The ban will keep him out of the octagon until next July.

UFC light heavyweights Daniel Cormier and Anthony Johnson went on a Canadian morning show yesterday to promote their upcoming bout at UFC 206 in Toronto. Everything was going fine until the host accidentally fed Johnson some intel about his opponent.

This morning on the MMA Hour, Georges St-Pierre said that his contract with the UFC has been terminated. St-Pierre, one of the greatest fighters of all time, was rumored to return for UFC 206 in Toronto, although Dana White poured cold water on that idea over the weekend. White has expressed doubt that St-Pierre…

Before Conor McGregor took a narrow decision win over Nate Diaz at UFC 202, the rivals squared off and threw a bunch of water bottles at each other after McGregor arrived late to a press conference. It was a relatively harmless and entertaining spectacle, one that certainly hyped up the fight. McGregor, however, will…

Demetrious “Mighty Mouse” Johnson is easily the UFC’s most dominant champion right now. He blends speed and technique with sublime precision, beating some of the best fighters in the world and making it look easy. He also probably plays more video games than you.

Nate Diaz came at Conor McGregor online this afternoon, and while we laud his utter disdain for the man and commitment to talk smack whenever we can, he still just did some tweets. At the UFC 205 press conference this afternoon, Some UFC Guy tried to diss McGregor to his face by claiming that he did sweet knockout…
